Joe Bageant grew up in Winchester, Virginia, a place he describes as ‘solidly fundamentalist Christian and neo-conservative, steeped in the gloomy ultra-Protestant assumption that man is an evil, worthless thing from birth and goes downhill from there.’ After 30 years living elsewhere, Joe found himself back in his home town, writing about the poor and working poor folks he grew up with. Joe Bageant died on 26 March 2011. Originally broadcast on 5/11/2007.
